Obama’s Convenient Pro-Israel Campaign

Should it come as a surprise that a few days before Mitt Romney is scheduled to visit Jerusalem, Obama signs a strengthened U.S.-Israel security bill and releases seventy million dollars to Israel touting America’s “unshakeable commitment”? The money is allegedly to help expand Israel’s short-range missile defense system, but I can’t help but wonder about the timing here.

Romney doesn’t have access to Federal funds. He can’t campaign on the taxpayer’s dime. It’s like Obama sent Israel an expensive (taxpayer-funded) gift with a note that said, “Don’t forget how much you love me while Romney’s there wooing you. Hugs and Kisses, Barack.”

Romney has criticized Obama of late because he has not been decisive in recognizing Jerusalem as the new capital of Israel, among other things. Romney has made it clear that he fully supports Israel, as do most conservatives… and apparently liberals too.

It’s strange to find an area where both parties are willing to agree publically. What’s the deal with Israel? Why do we court her so? Our relationship with her has been enormously costly and fraught with drama (I almost feel like I am talking about a real woman here…).

The modern nation of Israel was created by the UN in 1948. Ever since then (like the day after), every Arab nation on the Sinai peninsula and beyond has vowed Israel’s destruction. It may have been the blindest, most short-sighted mistake One-World-Government cartographers made that century (and there were some doozies). Those Muslims who were displaced from their homes in 1948 were, and still are, the angriest of the whole group. They were never naturalized back into their former countries of origin and they’ve been roving the countryside committing acts of terror ever since.

But creating a short-range missile defense system will not protect Israel from car bombs and IEDs. It is meant to protect her from a full-scale national attack.

It’s possible that Obama signed this bill and released these funds not just because he wants to make himself look good in the current presidential campaign, but, more importantly, because he knows something we don’t yet know: Iran will be getting nuclear weapons. If this is the case, things in the Middle East are going to get even more complicated.

It may be that we’re on the verge of a severe test of our international hegemony. And we’ll probably run out of money long before our politicians realize how fundamentally flawed our Middle East policy is. Who helped start Iran’s nuclear program in the first place? Oh yeah, we did. Atoms for Peace anyone? And who installed Hussein in Iraq? When are we gonna learn to just mind our own business? We’ll have to sooner or later. ’Cause when we’re too weak to play hero anymore and some other countries get strong enough to want to take a crack at us, do you think Israel will stick around? Naw. By that time, she’ll have done R-U-N-N-O-F-T.

Media Covering Up Gun Self-Defense Stories

I was talking to a friend recently about the whole Colorado theater massacre. We were lamenting about how our culture is so obsessed with these psychopathic murderers and that we never hear about the heroes, because sadly, in our dying culture, there are no heroes. But maybe we do have heroes; not superheroes, but heroes nonetheless. We just don’t hear about them.

Just recently in Florida, an armed 71-year-old internet cafe patron opened fire with his .380 pistol on two armed thugs attempting to rob the place. Samuel Williams, the aged hero, waited for the right time to shoot. Just as one of the teen bandits’ back was turned, Williams plunged into action, chasing them both out the door with bullets. They were both “beside themselves” as they fell over each other trying desperately to get out the door and away from this crazy old gun-toter (you should see the video; it’s hilarious). The two robbers were hospitalized with gun shot wounds and arrested later on robbery charges.

Critics are saying that these robbers weren’t going to shoot anyone. They were just going to rob the place, so what Mr. Williams did was completely unwarranted and over the line. Well, we don’t know that they weren’t going to shoot anyone. It could have turned into the “Florida internet cafe massacre,” which the media would certainly have gone crazy with. But it didn’t have to even get close to that because there was an armed, law-abiding citizen there willing to put his life on the line for the protection of his neighbors, and no one ended up getting hurt except the bad guys. So why don’t we hear stories like this in the major media?

I’m sure we’re all tired of the media “theater” surrounding the crazed “batman shooter.” I’m not even going to say his name. We all know it. We know what he looks like and what color his hair is. But one other thing we know is that the media love this type of person and what he did. It gives the media something to sensationalize, something on which to fixate and talk about non-stop knowing that fear-addicted Americans will sit and gawk at their TV’s or radios. It’s good for ratings. And when it’s good for ratings, it’s good for money. Yes, the media love a story like this because it makes them money. After all, they are a business, and they’ve got to profit somehow.

And it gets even better when these media people invite “experts” on their shows to talk about guns and how politicians need to just “do something” about them. Of course, that makes the liberal viewers mad because they believe these “experts”; and it outrages us conservatives because we know that “guns don’t kill, people do.” And again, the media sit back and watch the conservatives and liberals duke it out while their ratings go up (and with the media’s current dismal rating, they need all the help they can get). But I think there’s something more than just profit that drives the media.

How about an agenda? It seems we only see the bad news. We see the murder stories, the armed robbery stories, terrorist attack stories, kidnappings, child molestation, rapes, etc. Yeah, we might see some “heart-warming” story about how a cute kitten was rescued from a tree, but in general, we see mostly bad news. And I think that’s for a reason. It’s to elicit fear in the mind of the viewer and to convince us to live in constant fear of our surroundings. The media try to brainwash us into associating guns with bad people. Don’t you love it when the media show images of the “assailant’s” arsenal all sprawled out on a bed maybe next to a stack of cash (as if those things are inherently evil)? And then they show some scruffy, scowling picture of the alleged “bad guy”. It might even turn out that this bad guy was innocent after all, but it doesn’t matter.

The association is already done. If you have a gun, then you’re like that bad guy on TV. The more people are afraid, the more they will willingly give up their rights and even demand that those in power take them away from us in order to protect us from ourselves. The media won’t talk about the myriad cases where law-abiding citizens defend themselves and others from certain death using guns. That might convince viewers that guns can be used to protect people.

We’ve all speculated about the theater shooting and how if there had been just one person in that theater with a gun, he could have prevented all this carnage, and he would certainly have been a hero. But from the media’s perspective, there would be no news story in that. Nothing to sensationalize. More importantly, it wouldn’t be consistent with their agenda. So, like Samuel Williams’ story, no one would end up hearing about it. Just because something isn’t on the news doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. Contrary to what our media won’t tell us, there are heroes among us.

According to news reports, this sudden violent rampage was completely out of character for James Holmes, who was described as “shy.”

The New York Times is now reporting:Billy Kromka, a pre-med student at the University of Colorado, Boulder, worked with Mr. Holmes for three months last summer as a research assistant in a lab of at the Anschutz Medical Campus. Mr. Kromka said he was surprised to learn Mr. Holmes was the shooting suspect. “It was just shocking, because there was no way I thought he could have the capacity to do commit an atrocity like this,” he said. (http://www.nytimes.com/2012/07/21/us/colorado-mall-shooting.html?page…)

“He spent much of his time immersed in the computer, often participating in role-playing online games…”

There is already conjecture that James Holmes may have been involved in mind-altering neuroscience research and ended up becoming involved at a depth he never anticipated. His actions clearly show a strange detachment from reality, indicating he was not in his right mind. That can only typically be accomplished through drugs, hypnosis or trauma (and sometimes all three).

His behavior doesn’t add up

His behavior already reveals stark inconsistencies that question the mainstream explanation of events. For example, he opened fire on innocent people but then calmly surrendered to police without resistance. This is not consistent with the idea of “killing everyone.”

Furthermore, he then admitted to police that his apartment was booby-trapped with explosives. If you were really an evil-minded Joker trying to kill people (including cops), why would you warn them about the booby trap in advance? It doesn’t add up.

“After his arrest, Holmes told police about ‘possible explosives in his residence,’ Oates said. When police searched his apartment, they discovered it was booby-trapped and evacuated surrounding buildings, police said. Oates said bomb technicians are determining how to disarm flammable or explosive material in the third-floor apartment. He said police could be there some time.”

None of this checks out. If you’re a killer bent on causing mayhem, why tell the police about your surprise bomb waiting for them back at your apartment?

Holmes was clearly provided with exotic gear

Continuing from CBS:

“He said pictures from inside the apartment are fairly disturbing and the devices look to be sophisticated, adding the booby-traps were ‘something I’ve never seen.’ One rifle, two handguns, a knife, a bullet proof vest, a ballistic helmet, a gas device, a gas mask, military SWAT clothing and unidentified explosives were also found in Holmes’ car, a law enforcement source told CBS News. Oates said Holmes wore a gas mask, a ballistic helmet and vest as well as leg, groin and throat protectors during the shooting.”

In other words, this guy was equipped with exotic gear by someone with connections to military equipment. SWAT clothing, explosives, complex booby-traps… c’mon, this isn’t a “lone gunman.” This is somebody who was selected for a mission, given equipment to carry it out, then somehow brainwashed into getting it done.

This is not your run-of-the-mill crime of passion. It was a carefully planned, heavily fundedand technically advanced attack. Who might be behind all this? The FBI, of course, which has a long history of setting up and staging similar attacks, then stopping them right before they happen. See four documented stories on these facts:

To a crowd of supporters in Roanoke, the president of the United States finally came out in the open and said, “If you’ve got a business—you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.”

He put the plastic cherry on the cake for an adoring audience, with his favorite generality: “You’re not in this alone, we’re in this together.”

How are we in this together? By forcing a federal health insurance plan down everyone’s throat, whether they want it or not? By bailing out Obama’s biggest financial supporters on Wall Street, as opposed to putting them in jail? By invading Libya without Congressional approval? By helping to destabilize the Middle East and calling it “Arab spring?” By protecting the opium poppies in Afghanistan? By appointing strong advocates for…
